16. I would not have bought the text book for
this course because it's an elecIve. I
would have possibly walked away with a
C, now I might actually get an A-
It is easily accessible and convenient.
Material is easy to understand and follow
I personally really like the convenience of having the
complete set of chapters on my computer and even
accessible from my phone if I need it. I like that I don't
have to lug around another text book
It's free and it's a great money saver

The participants, who all have doctorates in psychology, gathered from around British Columbia to create a body of
high-quality test questions for the Open Textbook Project.
